This stunning cannon was found at the estate sale of an elderly antiques and fine art collector. His collection spanned from the ancient to the 19th century, and focused on several types of items including cannons and antique firearms, brass candlesticks dating to the 1500's, Native American Indian artifacts, 17th-19th century fine art, among other things. Measures approximately 10 1/2 long by 3 1/2' wide by 3 1/2' tall. The iron cannon itself measures approximately 7. Is a bit dusty/dirty, but will leave any cleaning or restoration to an expert collector.
